Hyperscan Alternatives

Hyperscan is described as 'High-performance multiple regex matching library. It follows the regular expression syntax of the commonly-used libpcre library, but is a standalone library with its own C API. Hyperscan uses hybrid automata techniques to allow simultaneous matching of large' and is an app in the development category. There are five alternatives to Hyperscan for Linux, Windows, Mac and Self-Hosted. The best Hyperscan alternative is Perl Compatible Regular Expressions, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Hyperscan are Oniguruma, TRE, RE2 and nregex.
